What do you like about working at Silgan Containers?
"I enjoyed working side-by-side the workers on the floor."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Forget about making a correct decision; just MAKE a decision. I wish I could tell you that they'd correct you, but I can't. It's said that you can't teach stupid. Well, stupid can't teach either."
What don't you like about working at Silgan Containers?
"The training program is anything but that. Upper management's lack of direction, insight and hypocrisies leave much to be desired. The good old boy philosophy runs deep; unless you're from another Silgan plant or from their locality, don't expect too much."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"A clear sense of direction and insight would be nice. Also, please leave the good old boy philosophy for The Dukes of Hazzard. (And yes, that's the correct spelling of Hazard for the TV show. Sorry, they're a little slow over there.)"

"Opportunities are given to learn about the heavy duty truck/transportation business in service, parts, and truck sales. As well as the opportunity to work with some very experienced people in this industry."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"If you can find a solid position anything besides the management trainee program in this company, go for it."
What don't you like about working at MHC Truck Leasing?
"Despite the fact that the company itself supposedly took pride in offering a management trainee program, the junior and senior level management as well as the staff in HR didn't have much care for the management trainees to ensure there timely completion of the program and their placement at a suitable position after training. For example, after finishing the training program in 8 months with good performance, there were no positions available to be placed anywhere in the company and had to wait 4 months just to get an interview for a position at a another branch. Yes, relocation is a big deal in this company. And at that time, nor the company or the supervisor were willing to create a new position or give an existing open position for me to be placed blaming it on the bad economy and hiring freeze that was taking place. On the other hand, there were other management trainees that got placed at very good positions, especially at the Corporate office in KC MO in which I was not given the opportunity to interview for. Yeah, this company somewhat goes by the Good Old Boy Network."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"To be honest with the management trainees hired in this program and not lie in their face about the facts that what good things will happen at the end after finishing the trainee program. Because it seems like there is a possibility that you can get terminated regardless of how well you perform in this program if management doesn't support you. The management trainees should not have to go out on a limb to bat with the branch managers and senior managers for a position. It can just be said that there are some serious ethical issues taking place in this company that should be dealt with. Too much politics."

"If you like to work 60-70 hours a week, at times commute 40 minutes to an hour each way, and make a little more than minimum wage, this is the job for you."
What do you like about working at Enterprise Rent-A-Car?
"Working with people my own age, the push by management to help advance, and going home."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"When told about the opportunities for advancement, ask them if there are so many opportunities because the company is growing, or because so many people are leaving."
What don't you like about working at Enterprise Rent-A-Car?
"Not being given a straight answer about which office I would be in in the next month (districts varied by up to 60 miles), Having mandatory charity meetings for the United Way in which the possibility of promotion was contingent upon donation."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"The ideas which the company operates under are very sound, but they should look at the way the regional offices implements these ideas. I know that everyone is competing against each other for promotions, however, some of the strongest reasons that I had for leaving the company were these: 1) I asked my area manager at my six month review where I was going to be working for the next three months and he told me in Woodland. I signed a new lease and within two weeks he moved me to Citris Heights (35 minutes away) 2) After a 13 hour day, being REQUIRED to go to a United Way meeting to encourage us to donate, and since we worked at the auto mall office, all the food and drinks were gone. 3) When said forms were handed out to donate, I did not. Two weeks later, my area manager took me out to lunch, asking me how I liked everything and how things were going. I said fine and he implied to me that donating to the United Way is part of the promotion process, as I would have to encourage others to donate. 4) When I caught mononucleosis, I was talked to about the number of days that I missed work, even though my assistant manager, my manager, my area manager, and HR had a copy of the doctor's note saying that I might need to miss work from time to time until I was healthy."
